Definitions
- the present invention relates to a housing for an electrical apparatus, and to an electrical apparatus that comprises a housing according to the invention, in particular for applications in the automotive industry.
- This inverter can comprise a power electronic unit that comprises components through which the electricity that powers the electrical machine passes; and a control electronic unit that comprises the components used to control the components of the power electronic unit.
- DC/DC converters installed on-board a vehicle and used to convert the voltage between a first electrical system and a second electrical system of the vehicle.
- the first electrical system is a low voltage system that delivers a voltage of less than 60V, and specifically of 18 or 12V approximately
- the second electrical system is a high voltage system that delivers a voltage of above 60V, and in particular greater than 100, 200 or even 400V.
- the DC/DC converter and the inverter can be integrated in the same electrical equipment inside the vehicle.
- the inverter and the DC/DC converter are subject to overheating, which also stems from the high power that circulates through them when the electrical machine works at high voltage, or when the DC/DC converter performs a high-low voltage conversion.
- a known method is to include a two-part housing for an electrical apparatus, in which the components of the inverter and of the DC/DC converter are distributed in the two parts, with a cooling circuit running between the two parts of the housing.
- patent application KR20110139038 A describes a similar housing for an electrical apparatus, whereby a first housing contains the components of the inverter, and a second housing contains the components of the DC/DC converter. The wall of the first housing is in contact with the wall of the second housing, thereby defining the flow channels of a cooling fluid.
- the purpose of the invention is to solve, at least in part, the problems relating to the prior art, by proposing a Housing for an Electrical Apparatus, said housing comprising:
- said interface comprises a non-through hole that extends from the first chamber to the second chamber, and configured to form a cavity used to house a first component.
- the cavity in the interface between the first and second chambers frees some space in the first chamber. This freed space in the first component improves the component integration density in the first chamber. Furthermore, as it is housed in the interface cavity, the cooling of the first component is facilitated by means of thermal drainage by the cooling circuit through the walls of the cavity.
- the interface comprises a first surface on the side of the first chamber and a second surface facing the first surface, on the side of the second chamber, said hole extending from a first opening in said first surface.
- said non through-hole is formed by a protrusion extending from said second surface.
- the interface comprises, in its thickness, a first part that forms the cooling circuit and a second part that comprises said cavity, said parts being on the respective sides of the interface.
- the housing for an electrical apparatus comprises:
- the interface between the two chambers is formed by a first wall of the first housing and a second wall of the second housing, resting against one another.
- said first opening is in the first wall
- the second wall comprises a second opening configured to correspond to the first opening
- the protrusion extends from the sides of the first opening and passes through the second opening.
- the protrusion extends from the sides of the second opening.
- the invention also concerns an electrical apparatus that comprises:
- the first components have electrodes that comprise parts that are largely at the same level in relation to the interface, the two first components being connected by means of a largely level electrical connector.
- the first component mounted on the interface comprises the switches of a voltage converter; and the first component housed in said cavity comprises a capacitor located in the path of the electric connection between a source of direct current and the voltage converter.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 are perspective views of an example of an electrical apparatus 1 according to the invention.
- FIGS. 3 and 4 are, respectively, views of a first chamber and of a second chamber housing the electrical apparatus when the hoods are removed.
- FIG. 5 is a cross section view of the electrical apparatus.
- FIGS. 6 and 7 are other views of the first chamber of the electrical apparatus with some of the components removed.
- FIGS. 8 and 9 are cross section views of the housing for an electrical apparatus.
- FIGS. 10 and 11 are perspective views of the first housing for an electrical apparatus.
- FIG. 12 shows a gasket inserted between the first and second housings of the housing for an electrical apparatus.
- FIGS. 13 and 14 are perspective views of the second housing of the housing for an electrical apparatus.
- FIGS. 15 to 18 are additional cross section views of the electrical apparatus.
- FIGS. 1 to 7 and 15 to 18 are perspective or cross section views of an example of an electrical apparatus 1 according to the invention.
- the electrical apparatus 1 comprises a housing 100 that houses the components of the electrical apparatus 1 .
- the electrical apparatus 1 also comprises an inverter designed to power an electrical machine, such as a rotating electrical machine, for instance a machine designed to drive the wheels of a vehicle.
- the electrical apparatus 1 comprises a DC/DC converter designed to convert the voltage between a first electrical system and a second direct electricity system of the vehicle.
- the housing 100 of the electrical apparatus comprises a first chamber 117 that houses the first components 300 , 310 , 315 , 370 , 375 , and specifically the electronic components, and a second chamber 127 that houses the second components 320 , 330 , 340 , 350 , and specifically the electronic components.
- An interface 150 shown in FIGS. 5 , 8 and 15 , separates the first chamber 117 from the second chamber 127 .
- the interface 150 comprises a cooling circuit 200 that cools the components of the electrical apparatus 1 , by circulating a cooling fluid in the flow channels 210 of the cooling circuit 200 .
- the interface 150 comprises a non through-hole that forms a cavity 151 , in which a first component 315 is housed.
- the first component 315 can be secured in the cavity 151 by means of a layer of glue between the component 315 and a wall, in particular the bottom wall 151 a of the cavity 151 .
- Resin can be used to fill the space between the periphery of the component 315 and the walls 151 a , 151 b of the cavity 151 , so as to reduce the vibrations of the first component 315 and to hold it firmly in place.
- Housing the first component 315 in the cavity 151 frees up space in the first chamber 117 , which facilitates the integration of the other first components 300 , 310 , 370 , 375 in the first chamber 117 .
- the walls 151 a , 151 b of the cavity 151 improve the heat dissipation of the first components 315 .
- FIG. 16 is an enlarged cross section view of the electrical apparatus 1 .
- the interface 150 comprises a first surface 153 located on the side of the first chamber 117 .
- a second surface 154 of the interface 150 faces the first surface 153 and is located on the side of the second chamber 127 .
- the through-hole forming the cavity 151 extends from a first opening 155 located in the first surface 153 .
- the first component 315 is inserted into the cavity 151 through the first opening 155 . Therefore, the height of the portion of the component 315 that protrudes from the cavity 151 is smaller than the height of the first component 315 .
- the space filled by the first component 315 in the first chamber 117 is therefore smaller than the space it would take if it was positioned on the first surface 153 , which frees up space for the integration of other first components.
- a protrusion 156 can extend from the second surface 154 so as to define a non through-hole that forms the cavity 151 .
- the cavity 151 therefore extends partially into the second chamber 127 of the housing 100 of the electrical apparatus 1 . Therefore, the depth of the cavity 151 is not limited by the thickness of the interface 150 , specifically the thickness between the first surface 153 and the second surface 154 .
- the protrusion 156 comprises a wall that extends from the second surface 154 so as to form the side wall 151 a of the cavity 151 .
- the side wall 151 a is aligned along the sides of the first opening 155 .
- a wall connects the far end of the side wall 151 a , so as to form a bottom wall 151 b of the cavity 151 .
- the bottom wall 151 b is flat or curvilinear in shape.
- the cooling circuit 200 can be included in a first part 150 a of the interface 150 .
- a second part 150 b includes the cavity 151 .
- the two parts 150 a , 150 b are on the respective sides of the interface 150 .
- the first part 150 a and the second part 150 b both extend from the first surface 153 to the second surface 154 , and are separated by a boundary that extends from the first surface 153 to the second surface 154 .
- the cavity 151 is not included in the cooling circuit 200 , which facilitates the design of the interface 150 .
- the first surface 153 and the second surface 154 must be level.
- the portion 153 a of the first surface 153 located in the first part 150 a of the interface 150 can be flat, with the exception of grooves to improve rigidity or of protrusions 157 (shown in FIG. 5 ) that create a fastening support, in particular for the first component(s).
- the portion 153 b of the first surface 153 located in the second part 150 b of the interface 150 can also be even.
- a step can separate the portion 153 a of the first surface 153 located in the first part 150 a from the portion 153 b of the first surface 153 located in the second part 150 b . This step is due to the thickness of the interface 150 , which is greater in the first portion 150 , in order to define the cooling circuit 200 .
- the second surface 154 in particular the portion 154 a of the second surface 154 , located in the first part 150 a of the interface 150 and the portion 154 b of the second surface 154 located in the second part 150 b of the interface 150 can comprise characteristics that are similar to those described above.
- the second surface 154 does not necessarily comprise a step, in particular when the interface 150 is formed by two housings 110 , 120 and when a first gorge 112 , forming the cooling circuit 200 with a second gorge 122 , is thicker than the second gorge 122 , as is explained in further detail below.
- the second part 150 b of the interface 150 can also include passages for the positioning of the electrical connectors 360 (shown in FIG. 5 ) achieving an electric connection between the first and second components through the interface 150 .
- the cooling circuit 200 can comprise an input port 201 and an output port 202 through which the cooling fluid enters and exits the cooling circuit 200 .
- the housing 100 of the electrical apparatus 1 comprises a first housing 110 that defines the first chamber 117 and a second housing 120 that defines the second chamber 127 .
- the first housing 110 houses the first component(s) of the electrical apparatus 1 .
- the second housing 120 houses the second component(s) of the electrical apparatus 1 .
- the first housing 110 comprises a first wall 111 that rests against a second wall 121 of the second housing 120 to form the interface 150 between the first chamber 117 and the second chamber 127 .
- the first wall 110 and the second wall 120 form the cooling circuit 200 .
- the first wall 111 can include a gorge 112 that faces a second gorge 122 of the second wall 120 to form the cooling circuit 200 .
- the first surface 153 of the interface 150 corresponds to surface of the first wall 111 that faces the surface featuring the first gorge 112 ; and the second surface 154 of the interface 150 corresponds to the surface of the second wall 121 that faces the surface featuring the second gorge 122 .
- first gorge 112 and the second gorge 122 face one another to form a flow channel 210 of the cooling circuit in which the cooling fluid circulates. Therefore, the diameter of the cooling flow channel is distributed in both walls. This allows to use both walls to spread the constraints on the wall thickness due to the creation of the cooling circuit 200 , and to evenly distribute between them both the chamber 117 defined by the first housing 110 and the chamber 127 defined by the second housing 120 .
- first wall 111 or the second wall 121 can also comprise through-openings at the level of the cooling circuit 200 . These openings are closed by a plate attached to the walls 111 , 121 , after installation of the first housing 110 and of the second housing 120 , one on top of the other. This plate is made of, for example, a part of an electrical component mounted on walls 111 , 121 .
- the cooling circuit is fully formed by the first gorge 112 and the second gorge 122 . In other words, the cooling flow channels 210 are formed only by the gorges 112 , 122 .
- first wall 111 and the second wall 121 are both made of single parts.
- first wall 111 and the second wall 121 come into contact with one another at the level of largely flat surfaces, respectively 113 , 123 , called bearing surfaces.
- the bearing surface 113 of the first wall 111 comprises the sides of the first gorge 112 ; and the bearing surface 123 of the second wall 121 comprises the sides of the second gorge 122 .
- the term “side” of the first gorge 112 or of the second gorge 122 describes the boundary between the gorges 112 , 122 and the surface from which the gorges 112 , 122 are formed.
- the surface from which the first gorge 112 is formed specifically corresponds to the bearing surface 113 of the first wall 111 ; and the surface from which the second gorge 122 is formed specifically corresponds to the bearing surface 123 of the second wall 121 .
- the sides of the first gorge 112 or of the second gorge 122 are fully integrated in their respective bearing surface 113 , 123 .
- Flat bearing surfaces between the first wall 111 and the second wall 121 facilitate the implementation of the sealing means of the cooling circuit 200 .
- the parts of the first wall 111 and the second wall 121 that come into contact to form the cooling circuit 200 are preferentially machined to eliminate any surface irregularities that could create spaces through which the cooling fluid could leak from the cooling circuit 200 .
- the inclusion of the contact surfaces 113 , 123 in the design facilitates the machining of the bearing surfaces 113 , 123 .
- the bearing surfaces 113 , 123 of the walls 111 , 121 are machined, and not the areas that are in contact with the cooling fluid, such as the gorges 112 , 122 . If the gorges 112 , 122 are machined, this process might reveal porosities in the raw material of the first wall 111 or of the second wall 121 . When the cooling fluid circulates, it could infiltrate into the walls 111 , 121 through these porosities, and even leak through the first wall 111 or the second wall 121 .
- the design, whereby the cooling circuit 200 is formed by the first gorge 112 in the first wall and by the second gorge 122 in the second wall 121 facilitates machining operations.
- a polishing head with a diameter that is smaller than or equal to the distance between two cooling fluid flow channels.
- the machining tool must comprise a polishing head with a diameter that is greater than the distance between two cooling fluid flow channels, since the polishing head will only come into contact with the bearing surface 113 . It is therefore possible to treat a greater surface with the polishing head, which reduces the machining time. This process also avoids the implementation of a complex route to be followed by the polishing head during selective machining operations.
- first wall 111 can be free of protrusions extending beyond the bearing surface 113
- second wall 121 can be free of protrusions that extend beyond the bearing surface 123 , at least in the areas 111 a , 121 a of the walls 111 , 121 that form the cooling circuit 200 .
- This facilitates the passage of a single machining tool on the face of the first wall 111 and on that of the second wall 121 , which will form the cooling circuit 200 .
- the area 111 a of the first wall 111 and the area 121 a of the second wall 121 that form the cooling circuit 200 correspond to the first portion 150 a of the interface 150 .
- the first gorge 112 can be deeper than the second gorge 122 .
- the depth of the first gorge 112 can range from 5 to 20 mm, but specifically equals 10 mm; the depth of the second gorge 122 ranges from 0.5 to 1 mm, and specifically equals 1 mm. This depth difference between the first gorge 112 and the second gorge 122 limits the thickness of the second wall 122 to provide more space in the second chamber 127 .
- the non through-hole that forms the cavity 151 is, in particular, formed when the first wall 111 comes into contact with the second wall 121 .
- the first opening 155 of the interface 150 corresponds to a first opening 115 in the first wall 111 .
- the second side 121 comprises a second opening 125 .
- the sides of the first opening 115 of the first wall 111 correspond to the sides of the second opening 125 of the second wall 121 , when the first wall 111 comes into contact with the second wall 121 .
- the first opening 115 of the first wall 111 can be traversing and the second opening 125 of the second wall 121 can be non-traversing.
- the protrusion 156 that forms the cavity 151 extends from the sides of the second opening 125 , from the second surface 154 of the interface 150 .
- this non through-hole can be achieved in another way.
- FIG. 17 provides a schematic example in which the first opening 115 of the first wall 111 is non-traversing and the second opening 125 of the second 121 is traversing.
- the protrusion 156 extends from the sides of the first opening 115 of the first wall 111 .
- the example shown in FIG. 17 is less compact than that shown in FIG. 16 .
- the first wall 111 can comprise at least a through-hole 114 and the second wall 121 can comprise at least a through-hole 124 , the sides of which come into contact with one another to form a passage between the first chamber 117 and the second chamber 127 .
- these through-holes 114 , 124 form a passage between the first surface 153 and the second surface 154 of the interface 150 .
- These through-holes 114 , 124 are in particular formed outside the areas 111 a , 121 a of the first wall 111 and the second wall 121 that form the cooling circuit 200 .
- the passage formed by these through-holes 114 , 124 enable the positioning of the electrical connectors 360 that achieve an electrical connection between the first and the second components through the interface 150 .
- a gasket can be placed between the first wall 111 and the second wall 121 .
- An example of a gasket 130 is shown in FIG. 12 .
- the gasket 130 provides, in particular, the sealing around the areas 111 a , 121 a of the first wall 111 and the second wall 121 that form the cooling circuit 200 .
- the gasket 130 is specifically placed between the bearing surfaces 113 , 123 of the first wall 111 and the second wall 121 .
- the gasket 130 can be empty in its portion that is located inside the cooling circuit 200 when it is formed, with the exception of strips of matter 134 , 135 , 136 .
- the strips of matter 134 , 135 , 136 improve the rigidity of the gasket 130 , facilitating maintenance and installation operations of the gasket 130 .
- the strips of matter 134 , 135 , 136 can be just wide enough to achieve the required rigidity and define the openings 131 , 132 , 133 .
- the gasket 130 provides sealing along a closed line around the cooling circuit 200 , in particular around the areas 111 a , 121 a of the walls 111 , 121 that form the cooling circuit 200 , i.e. around the first portion 150 a of the interface 150 .
- the gasket 130 can also provide sealing around the passages formed in the first wall 111 and in the second wall 121 .
- the gasket 130 therefore comprises holes 137 , the sides of which provide the sealing around said passages.
- the gasket 130 can also comprise holes 139 that allow the passage of respective fixing devices for the fastening of the first wall 111 onto the second wall 121 .
- a hole 138 in the gasket allows the passage of the first component 315 .
- the input port 201 and the output port 202 of the cooling circuit 200 are included in the second housing 120 , specifically in a side wall 126 of the second housing 120 described below.
- the input/output ports 201 , 202 are tubular openings in the side wall 116 .
- These input/output ports 201 , 202 are extended by tubes 203 , 204 that communicate with the second gorge 122 of the second wall 121 , to supply or evacuate the cooling fluid.
- the input/output ports 201 , 202 could similarly have been included in the first housing 110 .
- input/output ports 201 , 202 in only one of the two housings 110 , 120 facilitates the implementation of the sealing means at the level of the input/output ports 201 , 202 .
- the input/output ports 201 , 202 could have comprised a first part from the first housing 110 and a second part from the second housing 120 , whereby both parts come into contact when the cooling circuit 200 is formed.
- Nozzles 205 , 206 can be inserted in the input/output ports 201 , 202 so that they can be adapted to a supply circuit for the cooling fluid.
- Each housing 110 , 120 can comprise respective side walls 116 , 126 that extend transversally from the periphery of the first wall 111 or of the second wall 121 so as to define, respectively, the first chamber 117 and the second chamber 127 .
- the side walls 116 of the first housing 110 extend in the opposite direction to the second housing 120
- the side walls 126 of the second housing 120 extend in the opposite direction to the first housing 110 .
- Each chamber, 117 , 127 can be closed by a respective hood 118 , 128 that comes to rest against the distal ends of said side walls 116 , 126 . Therefore, the first wall 111 forms the bottom of the first housing 110 , and the second wall 121 forms the bottom of a second housing 120 .
- the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 can be fastened to one another with the fixing devices that hold the first wall 111 against the second wall 121 .
- These fixing devices can, for example, be screws introduced in the corresponding holes T 1 , T 2 of the first wall 111 and the second wall 121 .
- the fixing devices can also be mounting clips, for example on the side walls 116 , 126 of the first housing 110 and of the second housing 120 .

- the power electronic module 300 or the SMI board 310 can be located, at least partially, on the portion 153 a of the first surface 153 located in the first part 150 a (cooling part), which improves their cooling.
- the components of the power module 300 or of the SMI board comprise, for example, electronic switches, such as semiconductor transistors for example.
- the first chamber 117 can also comprise an electronic control unit 370 and the support 375 of the electronic control unit 370 .
- the support 375 of the electronic control unit 370 is a plate suspended in the first chamber 117 .
- the plate is held in position by resting against the portions of matter in the first housing 110 , in particular the protrusions 157 from the first surface 153 of the interface 150 .
